Catalogue of solo exhibition by Wang Xingwei at Galerie Urs Meile in Beijing and Lucerne in 2007. Nataline Colonnello wrote, 'When first seeing a monographic catalogue or a one-man show by Wang Xingwei, one could mistake the paintings for a collection of works by diverse artists. This is because, besides shifting from one style to the other, Wang keeps simultaneously developing different trends and variations around independent scenes which are disjointed from anytime and cause/effect, a priori rational and narrative succession. Even if Wang's paintings could be grouped in generic series following certain styles or topics, whether belonging to the same period or dating back to dissimilar creative moments, the artist leaves the task of ordering and connecting the works to the viewer's own discretion.' Artist biography is provided in the catalogue.
